I think that was the last episode

Make sure it's really him, and not Arthur Owens.

Even the rest of the family was fooled.

Re: The Brady Bunch - (the dumbest plots)

I would have to say, by far, the dumbest Brady Bunch episode was the Season 1 stinker "Mike's Horror Scope". From probably the world's worst fake Italian accent (darrrrrllllingggg....), to Mike actually designing a 'powder puff' building...it's just unwatchable.

The one slight redeeming grace of this show is during the closing tag. When Carol explains to Mike how to get into a building with no doors....well, I have to say, that line always makes me chuckle.

Re: The Brady Bunch - (the dumbest plots)

The 5th season episode where the little aliens from Kaplutian land in the Brady's back yard is pretty terrible. Also (from the same season), Kelly's Kids is bad-bad-bad. The American public in the 1970s probably gave a sigh of releif that the spinoff show was never made.

But on the plus side for season 5, the producers did make one of the best shows in the entire series with The Cincinnati Kids. Besides the somewhat silly plot, it's fun to know most of the extras in this show were just at the park for the rides, and really not aware of what's being filmed (by the look on their faces).

Relax, it's not like he's meeting Davy Jones or Desi Arnaz Jr.!

No, but it is Peter "Scoop" Brady! Intrepid reporter and connoisseur of all things "Pork Chops and Applesauce"!

What is too bad is that they didn't cast Todd Lookinland as "Cousin Oliver." Instead of Oliver being a nephew of Carol, he could have been a nephew of Mike, thus explaining the resemblance between Bobby and Oliver. It would have been kinda neat-o.

He did save that girl's life in Driscoll's Toy Store.

I always hated the episode where Cindy has the sniffles. They acted like she was diagnosed with cancer.

It's gotta be weird knowing that the whole world has seen you grow up.
